Several people inside the store were injured but were able to be treated and released at the scene of the accident. Two people were taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Police stated that neither the driver nor her passenger were hurt.

Nampa Police will continue to investigate this crash. They say that they do not expect alcohol played a role in the accident.
